Stranger Raymond Davis is being held at the Butte County, Calif. jail pending extradition to Josephine County, according to an Oregon State Police news release.

Police had been investigating the death of Michael Clyde MacDonald, 61, who was found shot dead in the 6000 block of Rockydale Road, south of Cave Junction, on the afternoon of Aug. 2.

Police investigating the death identified Davis as a person of interest, the release states. Authorities developed information that Davis might have fled to the town of Paradise in Butte County. Paradise Police arrested Davis Wednesday on an unrelated warrant as Josephine County issued a warrant for his arrest on accusations of murder, police said.
